Clinton TV ads hammer guns in NH, shy away in Iowa
Sanders. It’s bad enough that Hillary Clinton is raising millions in special-interest money in her super PACS. Last, but not least, I am voting for her because I truly believe that there is nobody more qualified to run this country – our country – than our secretary of state.
New Hampshire-based American Research Group showed Sanders ahead, 49 percent to 43 percent, plus O’Malley at 3 percent.
In a Democratic primary that appears to be tightening, Clinton’s campaign has escalated its attacks on Sanders over his perceived inexperience with foreign policy.
Iowa’s importance has only increased in recent days, given a string of polls that show Sanders leading in New Hampshire.
Of the issues most pressing for voters, the economy was the lead at 37 percent for Republicans to 46 percent for Democrats.
Stirring, and if the object now is to keep score of how many people of color are in an ad, no whiter than Hillary’s closing argument, so maybe someone should give David Brock a sedative and wake him up when we get to SC.
Sanders faces a bigger hurdle in states beyond Iowa and New Hampshire with minority voters, who are virtually absent from the first two contests and play a large role in the nominating process.
As per RealClearPolitics, which aggregates all the national polls, Clinton has a 13-point lead over the Senator from Vermont.
Sanders fired shots at Clinton in a major way.
In hypothetical general election matchups, Sanders outperforms the former secretary of state, according to a CNN/WMUR poll released Wednesday, beating five different Republican candidates by double digits.
Clinton, who is in the midst of a campaign swing through Iowa, stressed that this was a tough race and said she knows how to get “knocked down” and get back up.
Campaigning in the midwestern state that holds its caucuses on February 1st, Ms Clinton sharpened her tone, questioning whether Mr Sanders’s ideas can be enacted.
She had a commanding lead over her nearest Democratic rival Sanders in Iowa until December. While Sanders demanded the governor’s head, he noted, Hillary Clinton contacted the mayor and scrambled to help demand the money for a fix.
“When I look at where we are today, I know how anxious and, yes, even angry people are and I think folks have good cause to be both”, Clinton said, later drawing focus to one issue where she has sought to draw a contrast with Sanders: health care. “I want to thank her for how fearless she is, how confident she is”, she said of the outspoken singer-songwriter.
“She’s a really strong woman, and I’m really drawn to that”, said Stephanie Schulz, a 20-year-old University of Iowa student.
